Design of a Computer-Controlled, Random-Access Slide Projector Interface

Abstract

The Technical Training Division of the Air Force Human Resources Laboratory has a research and development mission to improve Air Force training through the application of instructional and computer technology in the administration and management of individualized instruction. Within this new pedagogic environment, a computer-controlled random-access image projection capability is desired. This is a report on the successful design, development, test and evaluation of an electronic hardware device interfacing a commercially available slide projector with a plasma panel computer terminal. The interface device allows an instructional computer program to select slides for viewing based upon the lesson/student situation parameters of the instructional strategy employed.
